About Ryan: 

Ryan Powderly is a DJ, producer, and recent University of Melbourne music graduate, responsible for a streak of inspired and stir-crazy Household Techno videos made during the lockdowns. These videos led to live-streaming Household Techno collaborations with thousands of Twitch viewers, creating household bangers for milk and sneaker commercials, and running weekly music workshops for young people throughout Melbourne. Outside of hosting workshops, Ryan is a member of the multi-faceted label Pelvis; a celebration of dance music culture through parties, spatial design, clothing, and music.
